US Mumbai Consulate
I was having my H1B Visa interview at US Mumbai Consulate, 27/10/2015 9 AM. I reached venue at 8:40 AM. I attired in full formals, not folded sleeves and without belt/wallet/bag pack. I heard to be in such attire from one of my friend.

It was a long queue outside consulate, with no. of people standing to attend tourist/B1/B2/L1/H1/Student Visas. After sometime, one of the VFS employee came and asked to scan sticker given at VFS Biometric. After scanning and number wise queue passing, I entered security check area where security personnel scanned my documents folder (see through folder I was carrying) with X-ray scanner and other did manual frisking like we go through at Airports. Security check was done at 08:55 AM.

They allowed me to go another step inside where VFS officials asking us to wait in queue where we can sit on chairs and go on as your turn comes. It took near about 25-30 Min in queue there. And I got inside another area at 09:30 AM which was actual Visa Interview location.

After getting inside there, I followed a queue where VFS officials guided me to last counter for bio metrics taken at VFS to be cross checked, 09:50 AM.
After cross checking of bio metrics, VFS officials asked me to be in queue at counter for Visa interview, the most awaited. My turn came and I appeared at one of the counter for Q&A, and it started . . .

VO: Passport
I handed over passport to him

VO: Why are you going to US?
Me: YYYY X

VO: How much will be your salary there?
Me: YYYY X

VO: What is your highest education?
Me: YYYY X

VO: For which company are you working?
Me: YYYY X

VO: Are you single or married?
Me: YYYY X

VO: Your VISA has been approved and you can collect it in next 3-5 days. Have a nice day

Me: All smiles :) :) :)

And that was how it done for me at 09:55 AM. All Q&A completed not more than a minute or 2.

My current Visa status shows as "Issued".
